DUKE OF EDINBURGH AWARD<br />

THE ROYAL VISIT<br />

His Royal Highness Prince Edward The Earl of Wessex visited<br />

the school on 18th November 2010 in order to celebrate the<br />

20 th anniversary of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award at our<br />

school and the achievement of its 1000th Award.<br />

Upon hearing the Prince would be visiting, the entire school<br />

was filled with excitement and preparations for his arrival<br />

immediately took place. We gathered together photographs<br />

from our expeditions whilst others prepared dance routines<br />

and various presentations.<br />

The Prince was first greeted by Junior <strong>School</strong> children who<br />

waved flags excitedly as he entered the school. His Royal<br />

Highness then arrived at the Sports Hall to meet with the<br />

students taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme.<br />

The doors were opened and the Prince entered the room.<br />

Everyone waited expectantly for their chance to meet the<br />

Prince and to demonstrate their activity.<br />

On arriving at our section, the Prince shook hands with us and<br />

took the time to enquire about our Gold Qualifying<br />

Expedition which took place in the Lake District in July. We<br />

presented him with a copy of “A Walker’s Guide to the Lake<br />

District” - a book of walks around Buttermere and Crummock<br />

Water which we compiled as the aim for our expedition. He<br />

then went on to ask us about our progress with the Award and<br />

congratulated us on our achievements so far. We were<br />

completely overwhelmed by the Prince’s enthusiasm and the<br />

interest he took in not only our past expeditions but also our<br />

activities.<br />

Prince Edward was also welcomed by pupils at all levels of the<br />

Duke of Edinburgh Award who showed him activities<br />

including route planning, volunteering, music, animation,<br />

fencing, climbing and dancing. Everyone enjoyed watching<br />

the performances and looked on in fascination as the Prince<br />

made his way around the room.<br />
